Robots at CES 2018: Robotic Devices

RoCo by Mobile Comfort Inc.

This is a cool idea. RoCo is a robotic air conditioner.
It’s basically a “trash can” or R2D2-style robot with a built-in AC system.
It uses a depth sensor to rotate towards, or follow, its human owner.

The University of Maryland got funding for the idea back in 2014:
